0:57Now PlayingDonald Trump’s allies have spent weeks praising Vivek Ramaswamy, a rival Republican 2024 contender, believing the Ohio businessman’s outsider bid helps neutralize their greatest threat.
Ramaswamy emerged Wednesday as the central figure of the first Republican presidential debate, in what people familiar with the former president’s campaign strategy describe as a bid to undercut Ron DeSantis.
Trump’s allies see Ramaswamy as sapping support and attention from the Florida governor, compounding the narrative that his campaign is floundering, according to the people familiar who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss strategy. It’s unclear whether there have been any discussions between the two camps.
Moreover, Ramaswamy has echoed many of the policy priorities and political philosophies championed by Trump, helping popularize and legitimize dramatic proposals like eliminating huge swaths of the federal bureaucracy or pulling back from foreign alliances. Trump himself considered Ramaswamy a de facto surrogate on the debate stage and was delighted by his performance, according to one person familiar.
